Accessing an uploaded file via the web

After uploading a file to the Object Storage space, you can access it using a browser, provided that the file has the required public permissions.

If you know the file name, the Region URL and the bucket where it is stored, you can build the file address in two equivalent ways:
http://Region URL/bucket/file name or http://bucket.Region URL/file name
For example, using:
  • r1-it.storage.cloud.it as the Region URL;
  • backup as the bucket;
  • example.txt as the file name;
the addresses are:
http://r1-it.storage.cloud.it/backup/example.txt or http://backup.r1-it.storage.cloud.it/example.txt
